Laird Park circa 1955

In 1955, Mr. Laird Park purchased the company from the Troemner family. At this time, the company needed to be revitalized to return to its former glory. Mr. Park brought his knowledge, experience and enthusiasm to this venture to bring Troemner into the 20th century. Under his direction, the balance and scale product line was updated to meet market demand and the production of precision weights began in earnest. In 1958 Troemner published its first comprehensive catalog of standard weights. Troemner next offered its own weight calibration service for customer weights. This important service is one that continues to this day.

In addition to updating Troemner's products and services, Mr. Park rehabilitated Troemner's facilities. In 1963 Troemner moved to 6825 Greenway Avenue in Philadelphia. At this site, Mr. Park expanded and increased efficiency in a modern manufacturing facility for Troemner's products.

Factory and Office, 710 Market Street

In the 1990's, Troemner began the process of achieving ISO 9001 certification. Troemner was one of the first companies in the Philadelphia area to earn ISO 9001 certification in 1993. Shortly after this milestone, Troemner began the process of gaining accreditation of its mass metrology laboratories by the NIST administered National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) and its United Kingdom equivalent, United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS, formerly known as NAMAS). By obtaining accreditation, Troemner is able to provide our customers with certificates that meet or exceed the strictest recognized standards.

Analytical Scale

In 1995 Mr. Park officially retired and Mr. Abele who joined Troemner in 1972 became Troemner’s new owner. In May 1999, Troemner moved across the Delaware River to Thorofare, New Jersey.

Troemner Headquarters

Over the years Troemner has continued to expand and increase its expertise in manufacturing and measurement capabilities. Troemner relocated to Thorofare, New Jersey in 1999 to a state-of-the-art specially designed corporate headquarters, which was planned by a team of employees, engineers, and architects to specifically meet the customer’s needs for high precision calibrations. Troemner’s laboratories provide customers with all the data and traceability information they need for their calibration items. The Calibration Laboratories’ physical conditions and state-of-the-art equipment enable Troemner to produce measurements with very small uncertainties for its customers. Troemner is not only committed to quality calibrations, but to the product itself as evidenced by the introduction of a unique material used to manufacture weights called Troemner Alloy 8, a specially blended stainless steel with very low magnetic properties. Troemner is committed to achieving the highest levels of accreditation for all of our calibration services which include mass, mass magnetic susceptibility, mass density determinations, pipettes, thermal mass flow, temperature, humidity, pressure and electrical, time and frequency. We continue to research and develop new calibration services to meet the diverse needs of our customers.
